It's always interesting to see how they "pose" for pictures and I wonder how many copies there were & did anyone else in the family get one. In those days most women made their own clothes ~ or crocheted their bonnets.

Possibly a daughter of Rev, Ebenezer BATES and Rebecca GOFF of Clarendon, Rutland, Vermont? Probably not of my MA BATES line but still interesting. Probably of the Rhode Island BATES lines.

It wasn't because of their teeth, photos were seen as a historical document at the time, it was difficult to hold a smile during the long exposure time when the picture was being taken.
Even when camera's improved they exposure time so it was faster, people saw a photo as historical document and the last thing they wanted was to have a picture of a goofy grin for the rest of time, it was a serious occusation. :)

This is amazing to see and it makes me ponder that those of us from the last 100 years or so, forward, will be able to be seen hundreds if not thousands of years in the future (if the good Lord allows the world to last that long).
